Why is there fog in the headlights?
The appearance of fog inside the headlight is usually caused by moisture in the air. When the headlights are working, the internal air expands and is exhausted through the vents. When the headlights are turned off, the internal air cools and requires external air to be replenished. At this time, the dry cotton at the vent should filter out moisture in the air to ensure that the inside of the headlight is dry. However, when the rear portion of the headlight is not tightly sealed or is aged, moist air may enter the interior of the headlight from the rear cover, causing water mist. In addition, seasonal and day-night temperature differences may also have an impact on the generation of water mist inside the headlights.
If you find water mist inside the headlight, you should check whether the sealing strip at the rear of the headlight and the dry cotton at the vent are intact. If the seal is not tight, sealant can be used to seal it separately. At the same time, car owners should also be careful not to damage the sealing strip when replacing light bulbs. If fog occurs, using a hair dryer to dry it will only temporarily solve the problem, but baking the headlight directly at high temperatures may cause damage to the headlight shade.
In order to avoid fogging inside the headlights, car owners can regularly check the sealing of the headlights and the condition of the dry cotton to ensure that they are in good working condition. In addition, in humid weather conditions, you can turn on the headlights for a period of time to allow air circulation inside them, which will help reduce the generation of water mist.
